Would a dr know I have it if I've been seen recently?

I get up to pee like 2-3 times a night. I also keep water next to my bed.

If you raised the issue, hopefully they considered it, but they can’t see it on a routine visit. The two main ways we check for it would be:

  • an Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT), where you get serial blood sugar measurements for two hours - before and after drinking a specific amount of glucose on an empty stomach in the morning.

  • A blood test called HbA1c which correlates to your average blood sugar over the last 3 months.

I didn't mention it. Thank you for taking the time to answer. TIL I might have diabetes from a meme
